your summation  excludes the four promotions he's secured from the Championship.

Why? Do we have to put our opinions on hold about signing a racist until our favourite black man speaks about it?

Also, McGrath is of a generation (and nationality) that sadly ensured that he endured far, far worse racism than that which Terry dished out. Perhaps his ability to forgive his own tormentors means that he's more inclined to acceptance of c*nts like Terry? Does that mean we have to agree? Isn't he also a Chelsea fan, which might also be a factor? Why does it matter?

The apologists are ashamed and are looking for any excuse to assuage their guilt.

If we are to sign him ideally I'd like to see Villa win promotion without him spending a single minute on the pitch. That would be rather nice. Hate the thought of Captain Me in a Villa shirt.

Well said SE. It's much better and much more powerful when all people take a firm stand on racism not just black/coloured people.

Thanks pal. Although it's a bit rum to automatically assume that I'm a pale, second-generation Irish pinko, just because I come across as a twat. I mean, I am, but check your privilege, bruv. Winking gent.

I'm not even sure they are ashamed, sadly.

Calling someone a fxcking black cxnt in the workplace is just one of those things, it seems.

Man up, or go shopping with the missus. Or summat.

I dislike John Terry as a man, I like him as a footballer.

Why did you wonder?

Do you wonder what he thinks about the replacement for Villa Cash?

Personally, I hope James Chester remains as team captain. JT can show his leadership skills without needing an armband.

Assuming this deal happens, I think that as many people as possible ought only to refer to him as John George Terry. Get as far away from the chummy 'JT' sobriquet as possible.
I am very petty though.

I imagine he'll spend most of his time in London, training alone and traveling up to Bodymoor Heath on a Friday morning before the game. Obviously not going to move up here for the season and can't see him too keen to commute on a daily basis. But fear not, he will turn up in full kit for the first team squad photo.
